The involvement by the staff in the productive capital and the success of a company is the basis for a shared successful future for entrepreneur and employees. More and more medium-sized companies are now discovering what has been the order of the day in other countries and for listed companies for some time. In Germany the idea may be relatively new for both medium-sized entrepreneurs and staff, but for entrepreneurs who are prepared to convince their staff of the advantages of an investment in their own company, the involvement of staff can bring with it considerable benefits, ranging from increased motivation to an improvement in the company’s liquidity situation.

A staff profit-sharing scheme improves the company’s capital resources, strengthens competitiveness and thus ensures sustainability. In addition, the staff’s initiative will be enhanced, and staff motivation and, with it, productivity, will increase.
